Diesel Technology Forum
The Diesel Technology Forum is a leading information source on clean diesel and energy issues. Its leaders participate regularly in legislative and regulatory deliberations, technology demonstrations, and industry and media events. Elected officials, regulators, members of the media and other opinion leaders count on the Forum for data, insight and expert commentary.
The Forum maintains close working relationships with numerous federal, state and local regulators and elected officials, as well as various groups that share a stake in clean diesel. It has partnered with both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board to encourage the modernization and upgrading of existing diesel engines.
The Diesel Technology Forum is dedicated to raising awareness about the economic importance and essential uses of diesel engines, highlighting the continuous improvements in fuel efficiency and emissions, continuing to reduce the environmental impact of the existing fleet of diesel engines, and leading the way for future clean diesels in all applications.
Members include leading vehicle and engine manufacturers, key component suppliers, petroleum refineries and makers of emissions control devices. Among the companies participating in the Forum are: BMW, BP, Caterpillar, Cummins, DaimlerChrysler, Deere & Company, Delphi, Detroit Diesel, Donaldson, Eaton, Ford, Gale Banks Engineering, General Motors, Honeywell, International Truck & Engine, Johnson Matthey, Robert Bosch Corporation, Volkswagen, Volvo Powertrain and numerous associate members.
The Forum’s website – www.dieselforum.org – serves as a one-stop gateway for information and sources on clean diesel. NARC members will find useful information on DTF's recent report entitled Retrofitting America's Diesel Engines: A Guide to Cleaner Air Through Cleaner Diesel and from DTF's Retrofit Toolkit.
